Hello everyone. Just wanted to let you know to check out some new pictures that have been added and a new vision and goal of the group. Remember, if you have any ideas, comments, suggestions, complaints, pictures or whatever, please let me (John Murphy) know. Cause this is YOUR group and if it weren't for YOU, there wouldn't be a Vanderburgh County Medical Reserve Corps. We have some ideas for 2014, but we need your help, so please come to the meetings and events and help make Vanderburgh County Medical Reserve Corps the best in Indiana.

Our MRC meeting on Wednesday, February 12th will be a combination of social event and business.
We plan on a Valentine Day theme. The MRC will supply an entrée. Everyone should bring a covered dish or desert.

We then have some important business. We have written a “Policy and Procedure Manual” and also “By Laws” for our organization. We would like to present these for your input.
Strike teams are listed. We want to present these and ask that you sign up for one or 2 teams.

Dwayne has come up with a number of events for which we need volunteers. These will be presented along with plans for educational meetings.
We are going to make a real effort to make the Vanderburgh county MRC an exciting viable organization.

We hope to see you on February 12th.
